Figuur in een uniform c. 1915s - 1925s

"Figuur in een uniform" is a pencil sketch by Dutch painter Isaac Israels, created between the 1910s and 1920s. The drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a figure in a uniform, capturing a moment of daily life. Israels, known for his paintings and sketches, often explored themes of ordinary people and their surroundings. The loose and expressive lines in this sketch suggest a rapid study, perhaps a preliminary observation for a larger work. The figure's posture and uniform hint at a military or official context, reflecting the period's societal realities.
